Last year (2012) I went through the worst time of my life, really bad break up and being unemployed for 6 months etc (believe me I know people have been through a hell of a lot worse)
I don't want to say I was depressed, but I feel I was and I hid it well and only my mum knew how bad things were. I started to feel better once I had a job again and started to feel more attractive but lately those old feelings have come back. They mainly happen when I see friends and they talk about weddings, babies etc and I am happy for them but it really does trigger those old feelings.
On boxing day when staying at my parents my sister came over I opened up and told her how I felt and how I felt before and that on some night out with friends I just want to come home and cry myself to sleep.
She gave me a quick hug and then nothing .... she isn't one for regular contact anyway but I haven't heard anything from her since that day and it kills me.
I understand she has her own life and family (husband and dd) and that I will never be her number 1 priority but if the role was reversed and I knew my sister was potentially suffering from depression I would have attempted to be there.
Aibu?
